The 1930s famine, as I already stated, was a result of poor weather conditions combined with underdeveloped, still-feudal agricultural practices. Katyn was neither settler-colonialism nor genocide, but was most likely committed by the Nazis given that the ammo was German, the execution method Nazi, and manufacturing dates of the ammo happened at a time when the Soviets could not have accessed them.

Too bad Russians contradict you… Keep denying genocide. What’s next, Palestine is just suffering from a storm? The Armenians just were tired after a walk? I’m curious, which other genocides do you deny?

I don’t deny real genocides like in Palestine, I deny fake genocides like white genocide in South Africa. Anyone that actually cares about genocide should be able to properly attack genuine genocide and properly attack those who senselessly hurl the term as a means to discredit their geopolitical opponents, thereby making light of real genocides like in Palestine.

So you just ask if the perpetrators agree with you politically, then it’s all good, it’s an accident, it was the other guy, it was actually good, the victims had it coming…

Nah, I pay attention to actual historical fact rather than seeing if the allegations line up with what I want to be true to delegitimize my political opponents.
